Mitigate flickering on color animations (#37925)

Summary:
Pull Request resolved: #37925

Vectorized animations (XY, Color) are split into multiple animations for each component that execute in parallel. Upon each of these animations completing, a rerender is triggered to sync the state back to the JS AnimatedValue nodes.

The problem with this is that calling update() on AnimatedProps when each animation completes results in potential flickering as all animations that are part of the vectorized animation may not have completed yet. For example, only the animation for the red channel of an animating color may have been completed, resulting in a temporary red color being rendered. So, for now, ignore AnimatedProps that use a vectorized animation.

Follow up will properly address vectorized animations - only call the update() when all animations complete.
